What is The Strand Magazine?
The Strand Magazine was a popular British monthly publication, famous for publishing Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories. It ran from 1891 to 1950. It's significant to the Houdini story because it's where his previously unseen essay, An Interesting Scrapbook, has been printed for the first time today.
